Professional wrestling career

[edit]

Dan Barry formed Tremendous Investigations Inc. alongside Bill Carr and later adopted the name Team Tremendous.[1] In 2014, Tremendous Investigations Inc. debuted for Combat Zone Wrestling defeating Milk Chocolate.[2] Team Tremendous defeated The Young Bucks, The Beaver Boys, and then champions, O14K, at New Heights in 2015 to become the CZW Tag Team Champions for the first time.[3][4] They successfully defended their belts against The Dollhouse (Marti Bell and Jade).[5] Barry and Sozio (replacement for Carr) lost the CZW tag team titles to #TVReady (BLK Jeez and Pepper Parks).[6]

On December 11, 2021, at Final Battle, The Righteous defeated Shane Taylor Promotions (Kaun, Moses and O'Shay Edwards) to win the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship.[7] They lost the titles to Dalton Castle and The Boys on July 23, 2022, at Death Before Dishonor.[8][9]

On March 31, 2023, at Supercard of Honor, Vincent and Dutch returned to the promotion, confronting Evil Uno and Stu Grayson to close out Zero Hour.[10] On the September 22 episode of Dynamite, Dutch and Vincent won a four-way tag team match to earn a shot for the ROH World Tag Team Championship match at WrestleDream.[11] At WrestleDream, however, they lost to MJF in a 2-on-1 Handicap match.[12][13]
